Abstract

The brushing device contains a bundle of fiber rods ( 1 ), which are arranged parallel to one another, and a protective sleeve ( 2 ), which encloses the fiber rods. Once fiber rods ( 1 ) have become worn, the protective sleeve ( 2 ) is able to be axially adjusted, so that the free ends of the fiber rods ( 1 ) protrude beyond the protective sleeve ( 2 ) by a desired amount. A first component ( 4 ) connected to the fiber rods ( 1 ) and a further, second component ( 8 ) connected to the protective sleeve ( 2 ) are detachably connected to one another, in a non-positively locking manner, by a clamping mechanism ( 3, 5, 11 ).

Claims (8)

1. Brushing device for the working of workpieces, comprising a bundle of fibre rods, arranged parallel to one another, and a protective sleeve, which encloses the fibre rods and is axially adjustable relative to the fibre rods, wherein the brushing device has a clamping mechanism, which detachably connects to one another, in a non-positively locking manner, a first component connected to the fibre rods and a second component connected to the protective sleeve;

wherein the clamping mechanism contains a clamping cone.

2. The brushing device according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one spring that forces the clamping cone into a position in which it connects the first component and the second component to one another in a non-positively locking manner.

3. The brushing device according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one pressure bolt which is in contact with the clamping cone.

4. The brushing device according to claim 3 , wherein the at least one pressure bolt is oriented parallel to the fibre rods.

5. The brushing device according to claim 3 , wherein the first component is a guide tube which is connected to a tool holding fixture and surrounds a shaft bearing the fibre rods.

6. The brushing device according to claim 3 , wherein the second component is a housing accommodating the clamping mechanism.

7. The brushing device according to claim 3 , wherein the bundle of fibre rods is arranged so as to be axially pliable counter to the force of a second spring.
